Using makefile for MPC5604B

[朱先生]

Hi, all:

     The platform is MPC5604B microchip. I write the makefile to manage our source code. The makefile is done but i don't know how to call this makefile.

In S12 platform, i use "piper.exe" and "maker.exe" to call the makefile, but in MPC5604B platform, the two tools are not existed. so how to solve this problem? should I download GNU to make thie makefile?

Thank you.

Hello,

You don't have to download a separate GNU bin utils since CodeWarrior already contains GNU make.exe (v3.80) in "<CW MCU v10.x>\gnu\bin\".

Hope it helps.

Hi, Stan:

     My IDE is "CW for MPC55xx, MPC56xx 2.10".  The IDE is used to develop PowerPC platform. Our company has already purchased the license, but it doesn't contain GNU bin utils.

     Should I download the version "CW MCU v10.x",is it free to develop PowerPC platform?

Thanks for your reply.

Hi Bryce,

You are correct. CodeWarrior Classic does not include make utility.

You can download CW for MCUs v10.x (Eclipse) evaluation/special edition which is free (special edition has a C code size limitation to 512K)

CodeWarrior Development Tools Suite - Special|NXP​

or you can download any other make utility distributed in e.g. Cygwin, MinGW,..)
